Lyrics

Afternoon in the homeroom They're about to let you go And the locker slam on the plan You had tonight You've been messing around with a boyfriend Maybe better left alone There's a wise guy that you know Could put you right In the lot, the boy that's idling by Doesn't rev your heart 'Cause it's only lonely spots He shares with you, oh And the long halls and the gray walls Are gonna split apart Believe it or not, there's life After high school And that's why the student body got a bad reputation Oh, yeah, oh, yeah What they need is adult education You're back to school, it's a bad situation Oh, yeah, oh, yeah But what you want is an adult education Oh, yeah The teacher don't know about how to deal With the student body (huh, huh) And the underclassmen are flashing Hot and cool, oh (huh, huh) All your girlfriends care about what you wear And talking about it (huh, huh) Believe it or not, there's life After high school (huh, huh) That's why the student body got a bad reputation Oh, yeah, oh, yeah What they need is adult education You go back to school, it's a bad situation Oh, yeah, oh, yeah But what you want is an adult education Oh, yeah, oh They're calling it a preparation (huh, huh) You're waiting for a separation You're nothing but another odd number (huh, huh) Memories that you won't remember So, you got a little education (huh, huh) And a lot of dedication But you want a little night school (huh, huh) Maybe some of it'll rub off on ya The boys are busy in the mirrors (huh, huh) Trying to imitate their heroes You make it with a false surrender (huh, huh) More memories you won't remember The senior with the junior miss (huh, huh) I wonder what the junior wishes That she could graduate to adult (huh, huh) That she could graduate to adult kisses Adult education Adult education Adult education It's a bad situation Adult education Adult, adult Adult, adult education Adult education Oh, yeah, oh, yeah Oh, yeah, oh, yeah Adult, adult Adult, adult Adult, adult Adult, adult Adult (adult), adult Adult (adult), adult Adult (adult), adult Adult educa-, edu-, no-no-no Adult (adult), adult Adult (adult), adult Adult (adult), adult educa-educa-education The high point of low school is getting out of there The low point of high school is what you wear, oh
